FAQs
What does PFC-free mean?
PFC-free means the jacket is made without perfluorochemicals, which are chemicals used to make products water-resistant. PFCs can be harmful to the environment.
Is the jacket suitable for very cold temperatures?
The jacket provides warmth with recycled insulation but does not have a specific temperature rating. It is suitable for typical cold weather conditions; however, layering may be needed in very cold temperatures.
How do I wash the jacket?
Machine wash at 40°C, tumble dry on low heat or hang to dry. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach.
Can I iron the jacket?
Yes, iron on low heat if needed, but avoid direct contact with any logos or reflective areas.
What is Solution dye lining?
Solution dye is a dyeing technique that saves up to 80% water compared to conventional dyeing methods, making it more environmentally friendly.
What if the water repellent finish stops working?
You can re-apply a PFC-free water repellent treatment after washing to restore the jacket's water resistance.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is not keeping the child dry in light rain.
Check if the jacket needs to be re-treated with a PFC-free water repellent. Follow care instructions to apply the treatment.
